On the surface, a team like Kansas - with their preseason hype and high-profile freshman imports - having a record of 11-4 heading into Monday night's contest against No. 8 Iowa State probably reeked of "average."

So they actually played that Pinstripe Bowl in Yankee Stadium yesterday; I just thought that game was an early April Fools' prank, but Syracuse and Kansas State actually showed up and played a really good game.

Cleveland State and #11 Syracuse fought each other down to the wire last night, and the underdog Vikings (in green) hit a miracle 60-foot prayer at the buzzer to score a 72-69 upset on 'Cuse's home court.
